A Prayer for a Difficult Family Member

Family can be the hardest place to love well. This is a prayer for grace, patience, and peace in a difficult family relationship.

Lord, You know how hard this relationship is.

Give me patience where I run out, and grace where I feel none.

Guard my heart from bitterness, and show me how to love wisely.

Bring peace where it is possible, and healing in Your time.

Change us both, Lord. Amen.

“If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.”
Romans 12:18

You don’t have to pray alone

On The Living Bread you can ask the family of God to pray for you and watch prayers be answered, or pray for someone else who needs it today. It is free, and you are welcome exactly as you are.
